Pros

Good technical work, learning opportunities, benefits, RCG compensation, and flexible vacation. Tuition reimbursement makes this a great company to start at, and then leave once you have a degree for a higher-paying alternative.

Cons

Has been reducing benefits, shorts employees' compensation during recessions and never makes up for it. Not a meritocracy. Changing roles can be extremely difficult. No stock options. RCUs vest over a significant amount of time.

Intel does not increase your pay or even encourage new roles if your qualifications change (master's degree, certs, etc.).

Advice to Management

Arbitrary promotion limits will make talented workers seek jobs at other companies.
